A 20-year comedy veteran, Willie Barcena never shies away from a challenge. Willie’s talent has garnered him 12 appearances on “The Tonight Show with Jay Leno” - more than any other Latino Comedian in the history of the Tonight Show. Leno also invited Willie to perform for the troops in Afghanistan where Barcena helped provide much-needed laughter. His numerous jobs prepared him for his comedy career. His security guard, plumber, roofer, and limo driver gigs gave him a background for his humor about everyday life.
